The Eastern Fells occupy the region between the A591 Keswick to Ambleside road and the lake of Ullswater to the west. The Helvellyn range forms the main spine of the group. To the south across the depression of Grisedale Hause, is the Fairfield group of fells.
Came in from Glenridding end with Al and Elgin. Did Striding edge and Swirral edge and Catstye cam. Very wet at end of day - Elgin tripped and got wet. Overall a fantastic day. Cold but not very icy. There was some snow on the hill at the end of Swirral edge going up over towards the top. Bit slippy just there. Must go back!
